THE COWARD.
A Study In Psychology.

IN society they used to speak ofhim
As chat handsome Signolles." His
title was Viscount Gontran-J Joseph de
5ignolles.
Orphan and master OF large for
tune, he made a conspicuous figure in
The fashionable world. He had O. fine
appearance, agood department, a ia
cility OF speech sufficient to gain him
The reputation OF wit, some natural
,race, an air OF noble reserve, bravo
nustache, and soft eyes-just what
women admire.
He was in demand at receptions, a
desirable partner in waltz, and he
inspired men with that sort OF conf
hence enjoyed by men who possess en-
srgetic faces. He lived happily, quiet.
", in the most absolute good moral
standing. 1t was known that he was
q good swordsman and o better shot.
"When we have to fight" he would
say, ~ choose pistols. With that
weapon am sure of killing my man."
Now, one evening, after having ac-
companied to the opera two young
married ladies OF his acquaintance,
with their husbands, he invited the
whole party after the performance to
take some supper at Tortoni's. They
had been there only few moments,
when he observed that gentleman
seated at a neighboring table was
staring steadily at one of the ladies
In the party. She seemed to feel an
moved, embarrassed and kept her
head down. At last she said to her
husband:
"There is o man over there who
keeps staring at me. l don't know
him at aldo your"
1.-THE husband, who had not noticed
anything, turned to look, and replied:
mo; Idon't know him at ALL"
The young woman continued, hall
smiling, half-angy:
ats very annoying. The man
spoils my supper"
Thehusband shrugged his shoulders:
ssNonsense; pay no attention to him.
II we had to worry ourselves about
all the insolent people we meet, there
would never be an end OF 1t"
But the viscount had suddenly ris-
EN-. He could not permit that individ-
nal to destroy the enjoyment which
he had offered. The insult was to
him-inasmuch as it was through
his invitation the party had entered
the cafe; therefore the affair concerned
no one but him.
He approached the man and said to
him:
"Sir, you are staring at those ladies
In a manner which can not tolerate.
VIII you be good enough to cease this
staring at oncelp
The other replied:
''You keep your mouth shut will

claimed:
Take care sir You may conpe
me TO violate politeness."
The stranger uttered only one word
-one filthy word, that resoundet
from one end of the cafe to the other

by Row in Religio- Philosophical
Journal.
My soul drinks in Its future life,
Like some greeniorest thrice cut down
Whose shoots defy the axman's strife,
And skyward spread greener crown.
While sunshine gilds my aged head,
And bounteous earth supplies my food,
TIE lambs OF God their soft light shed,
And distant words are understood.
Say not my soul is but clod,
Resultant OF my body'spo wers;
She plumes her wings to fly to God,
And will not rest outside his bowers
The winters SHOWS are on my brow,
But summersuns more brightly glow,
And violets, lilacs. roses now
Seem sweeter than longyears ago.
As approach my earthly end
Much palmer can hear aiar
Immortal symphonies which blend
To welcome me from star tostars
Though marvellous it still is plainl
A fairy tale, yet history;
Losing earth u heaven we gain;
With death, win Immortality.
For fifty years my willing pen,
In history, drama and romance
With satire, sonnets, or with men
Has flowed or danced its busy dance.
All themes I tried; and yet know
Ten thousand times as much unsaid
Remains in me- II must be 30,
Though ages should not find me dead.
When unto dust we return once more,
We cans say, zone days work is done"
We may not say, "Our work is Ger"
For life will scarcely have begun.
The tomb is not an endless night;
Il ia n thoroughfare-a way
That closes in soft twilight
And opens in eternal day. .
Moved by the love OF God, find
That must work as did Voltaire,
Who loved the world and all mankind;
But God is love! Let mono despair
Our work on earth is just begun;
Our monuments will later rise
To battle their SUBMITS in the sun
And shine in bright eternal skies.

Marriage of The Pretty Maiden
Who Captivated Kaiser VIII.


From the London Standard.
At Iglau, in Moravia, the marriage
has just taken place OF che youne
lady in whom the Emperor William
has taken great interest sincehe made
her acquaintance at Gastein some six
years ago. Every day during that
visit the emperor, sitting at the win
dow OF his hotel, noticed the young
lady in question, who is the daughter 6f
a cloth manufacturer, at the window
Of the opposite hotel. Soft happened
that when one day the familiar lace
was missing the monarch sent an ad-
iutant to inquire the cause. Thus
the little romance began, and the aged
emperor never ceased bis interest IN
the tranlein, who was q clever, well ed
ucated and lively girl, but not beau
~ in the ordinary sense. The emper-
or addressed her whenever they met ON
his walks, and from year to year he
pressed for her promise to come again
the following season. The monarch
further obtained a promise from her
that II she should become betrothed
she would let him know.
This happened last winter, and the
lady thought politeness required her
to inform the emperor'of the day OF
her wedding with Herr Killan, a mer-
chant OF Ielau. The consequence was
that few days ago, there ar
rived large parcel from Berlin, con-
tanning bracelet richly set with dia-
monde, jewal box adorned with the
imperial crown. accompanied by a let
ter from the first court champerlain,
saying that the emperor himself chose
this present. and that he desired the
bride to wear the bracelet at the cerq
mony. This was only accomplishef
with some difficulty, as the custo1
house officials would not deliver III
jewelry until IL had received the AUD
TRAN hall mark. High perronae4
had to intefere to enable Fraule1
Kern to wear he emperor's preset
during the ceremony. which TOOK plaA

itself with calling his conduct "mys-

There was great silence. Then n

LOUISVILLE, KY, August 1.-The

Democratic gam Of nearly 1000 over
